Depends on what kind of plane. You need to be careful to avoid the 'stealth' taxes we keep hearing about.

"The aircraft, which sports an interior renovation that cost more than $11 million, includes an 18-karat gold sink, plush leather seats, carpet, a $1.2 million sound system, and a full-service kitchen."

They can't spell "carat", and their web site scrolls sideways

No way would I trust them to fly a plane

Do you think HMRC will object if I put through a second plane in the same year?

Yes, they will get upset if you keep bothering them. They would be far happier if you didn’t file any returns whatsoever then they can concentrate on the easier cases of the ‘little people’.
